Tips to Maximizing Year 2018

In the next few hours, we'll be celebrating the dawning of a new Year - Year 2018. What a feeling that is! Messages, calls, pics and videos wishing you a great year and accompanying prayers will keep streaming in.
We'll all be in Church with our long or short lists of requests to place before God - areas of our lives we desire 'miracles' from God.
Well, I'm sure you know how that 'routine' has turned out in your life.
If 2018 will ever be fruitful, we must exceed these set bounds and move into the domain of RESPONSIBILITY. God does not raise indolent children. Rather He trains and develops diligent, responsible sons and daughters for Kingdom Expansion. As we banish all self-centered ambitions and dreams from our hearts, let's take Responsibility to
� Set SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time-bound) goals

� Make DELIBERATE/INTENTIONAL plans (broken down into executable bits)

� Place the plan before God in personal communion (Word study, Meditation and Prayers) as He fine-tunes it to suit His eternal counsel.

� Make a pictorial copy of your goals.

� Make resolute commitment to pursue the set plans to the letter (as you also make room for adjustment)

� Do a regular review/evaluation of your goals and plans and renew your commitment.

� Remove all anxieties and lean on God daily to guide you through

In 2018 pray, dream, pray, work... This is wishing you a fulfilling Year 2018.
